Question
Chapter 43, Problem 3TYU
Summary Introduction
Introduction: B cells are triggered when an “antigen” binds to the “antigen receptor”. This leads to synthesis of Ig proteins and are also called as antibody. In “cell-mediated immune response,” the “cytotoxic T cells” kills the “infected cells” by secreting toxic proteins before the full maturation of pathogens.

Which statement best describes the difference between responses of effector B cells (plasma cells) and those of cytotoxic T cells? (A) B cells confer active immunity;cytotoxic T cells confer passive immunity. (B) B cells respond the first time a pathogen is present; cytotoxic T cells respond subsequent times. (C) B cells secrete antibodies against a pathogen; cytotoxic T cells kill pathogen-infected host cells. (D) B cells carry out the cell-mediated response; cytotoxic T cells carry out the humoral response.
Explain the mechanism by which (A) macrophages and NK cells, and (B) macrophages and effector T cells become mutually activated in the course of an innate and adaptive immune response, respectively. (C) Which gene defects would impair these mutual activation processes?
